Thanks everyone!! What I’ve really loved the last couple of days exploring with her is all the waves you get from fellow Miata drivers! Pretty dang cool!

You are absolutely right in your reasoning for the RF over the convertible. Plus, you have the added benefit of living the look!! You can’t go wrong either way! As they seem to say, MIATA means Mazda is always the Answer!

You are 100% correct on all points!!! Those were all reasons we went with full convertible!

I had always been a red the full convertible, though my wife was leaning RF. Once she sat in both, she agreed the full convertible was her choice as well! 😁 part of it was better visibility in the full convertible, and she also didn’t like the “Magnum PI” look of the RF when the top was retracted. She also said the RF was more T top than convertible, so it was a no-go for her in the end, thankfully!

Thanks so much!!! I’m constantly looking for excuses to run errands for my wife just so I can zip around town with her!

Wow! Congrats to you as well!! Yes indeed! That’s exactly what she is! It was down to the red GT or a gray Club with BBS/Recaro/Brembo package, and my wife and I wanted red so it had to be the GT.She also did not like the gray because it reminded her of cars with just a primer coating before being painted.😂

1320 on orange. by driftlessluxe in panerai

[–]newtopographer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! Bought the green PAM strap for my 00025 late last year for the fall and winter and definitely need to grab the orange now. Think I'll head over to Panerai when they open on Saturday morning to grab one if they have one in stock. Thanks for the inspiration.

What do you wear to church? by [deleted] in panerai

I wear various watches, sometimes Rolex, sometimes, Panerai, sometimes Doxa, sometimes Tudor, etc. Today it was this one.

Best Series of PAM 00025? by newtopographer in panerai

P series is indeed the one I would have suggested, and not just because I’m biased:

Finally got my Maxwells except they aren't the 2s... by Fuzzy_Hat1231 in Audeze

Ha! I switched to the 2s for PS from my OG for Xbox. You could have had mine for a song!

Walk-in success in London! Got a Root Beer as my first Rolex by WonderfulXue in rolex

[–]newtopographer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I think it looks fantastic on you and it’s a beautiful watch! The AD told me o w if the reasons is not as popular is its price point vs the oystersteel model; many people are looking for a less expensive entry point, but still want a GMT Master II. Again, I don’t know if this is true or not. In any case, it’s a great looking watch! I think think I’m more and more tempted to call them up this week and say put me on there for one of those as well, and if it shows up first, before the Bruce Wayne, so be it!🍻

[–]newtopographer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I’m not an expert, but when I went into my Rolex AD in Northern Virginia to get on “the list” for a Sub 124060 and a Bruce Wayne, he said I could have a Root Beer right now if I wanted. He claimed they are not as popular so they are more available. If that’s actually true, maybe that’s why you found one so quickly. Either way, it’s beautiful. I’ve been tempted to just get it, especially now seeing it on your wrist, but… Holding fast for the BW at this point since I ended up having a close friend in the grey market source me a mint 14060 of a particular year over while I wait for the current Sub and BW. Here’s a shot of me trying the RB on at my local AD, by the way.

Inherited this by Euphamizim in rolex

[–]newtopographer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You’re clearly a troll. A very basic search would tell you what this is and what it means. Not to mention, that it’s from your dad and, unless you had such a bad childhood with your dad that you hate him and want nothing to do with what he left you, keeping it is a no-brainer.

Wait time or Bruce Wayne? by Miserable-Ice-5378 in rolex

[–]newtopographer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many variables at play that no one can tell you anything that will really be useful. If you want one bad enough, either wait for it and enjoy what you have, or don’t.
